1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Vesicoureteric reflux (VUR) is a congenital urinary tract defect caused by abnormal insertion of the ureter within the bladder wall. This leads to a defective ureterovesical junction in which urine flows retrogradely from the bladder to the kidneys. Although VUR is associated with recurrent urinary tract infections, renal malformations, hypertension, and reflux nephropathy, its relationship to each of these clinical entities is poorly understood. Mutations in genes expressed by the developing kidney and urinary tract can cause VUR in mice, and some of these same genes have been identified in humans with VUR. By discovering the genes that are associated with VUR, new hypotheses will be generated such that, eventually, the relationship between VUR and its complications will be understood.
